Spoilers of a Broken Love

Emma's POVI stared blankly ahead, wondering if I was imagining things.Benjamin Shaw reached out and lightly touched my forehead."Why are you looking at me like that? Are you still feeling unwell?"I shook my head."I'm fine now. The company is in a critical expansion phase. You should go back."He pulled me into his arms."What's more important than my wife? I'm staying here with you."Just then, his phone buzzed. He glanced at the screen, and his breathing faltered for a split second.Then, he looked at me with a trace of guilt."Emma, something urgent came up at the company. I have to deal with it. Rest here at the hospital. I'll come back tonight."Before I could respond, he had already turned and left in a hurry.The scrolling comments appeared again.[What company emergency? Samantha Hanson just sent him a photo of herself in a maid's outfit. He's rushing off for a hookup!][If Emma Jones follows him now, she'll catch them in the act!]I took a deep breath, swung

However, the phone kept ringing insistently. In the end, Benjamin picked up the call.His expression changed instantly, and he slammed on the brakes.Caught off guard, I was thrown forward, my forehead hitting the hard frame of the car.He said urgently, "Emma, something's come up at the company. I need to deal with it right away. Can you head back on your own?"I lifted my gaze to the floating comments above.[I'm so sick of it. How long is he going to keep using the 'company emergency' excuse?][It's obviously Samantha. She called to say she’s been in a car accident. That’s why he’s rushing off.]Samantha again.A dull, persistent ache spread through my chest.When I did not respond, Benjamin grew visibly impatient. He got out of the car and yanked open the passenger door."It's really urgent. Once I handle this, I can focus completely on our trip."Emma, be good."He did not even notice the swelling on my forehead where I had hit it. I forced my eyes wide open, refusing

Samantha was dragged into the house by bodyguards, panic surging through her.The moment she saw Benjamin, she rushed toward him, putting on a coquettish smile."Mr. Shaw, if you wanted to see me, all you had to do was call. Why would you have them drag me here like this?"Benjamin grabbed her by the throat, his gaze icy as he asked, "What did you say to Emma? Why did she leave?"If he found out about the day she had gone to provoke Emma, there would be hell to pay. Samantha forced a flattering smile onto her face."Mr. Shaw, I've never even met Mrs. Shaw. How would I have had the chance to talk to her?"Benjamin had no patience for her act. His mind was filled with thoughts of Emma, and he tightened his grip without hesitation."The day before yesterday. Blue Source Cafe. Tell me everything you said to Emma: word for word. Or don't blame me for what happens next."The pressure around her throat made it clear; he really might kill her. Desperate to save herself, Samantha gasped

I looked straight into his eyes and spoke slowly, each word deliberate."But I don't miss you at all. Every time I think of you, all I can see is you and Samantha in that bathroom, sneaking around behind my back."When I was lying in the hospital after my accident, you couldn't wait to run off and sleep with her. Ten years together, and you couldn't even remember our anniversary correctly."Benjamin…just admit it. You stopped loving me a long time ago."He shook his head, tears falling."No, Emma… I love you. I really do. I just… I just made a mistake."Cedric grabbed him by the collar and threw a punch straight into his face."Benjamin, what did you promise me back then? And now you cheat on her? I'll beat you to death, you heartless bastard!"Blow after blow landed on him. Benjamin did not even fight back; he could not.Seeing that Cedric might actually beat him to death, I stepped forward and pulled him back."Enough. I don't want to dwell on the past anymore. No one is ob
